Film Threat Rated: 2.5/5 Dec 6, 2005 Full Review Film Threat Rated: 2.5/5 Aug 10, 2004 Full Review Sean P. Means Salt Lake Tribune A family drama ... that makes up for its production deficiencies with a noble heart. Rated: 2.5/4 May 1, 2004 Full Review Jeff Vice Deseret News (Salt Lake City) The insights this independently produced drama has aren't any deeper than those to be gleaned from your average Afterschool Special. Rated: 2/4 Apr 30, 2004 Full Review Eric D. Snider EricDSnider.com Take your good intentions and put them in your bum. This is as dull and pointless a film as I've seen in ages.
